A selection of the best spots to climb during winter in Siurana.
A selection of the best spots to climb during winter in Siurana.
In Siurana you can climb all year. If you know where to go and at what time, this paradise of orange rock, always has a good sector to enjoy climbing, either in the middle of summer or in the middle of winter.
Those super cold days, with single digit temperatures and north winds winds, Siurana offers a good variety of crags to shelter and enjoy climbing. Here is a selection of our favorite sectors for the coldest days of the year.
La Reina Mora, is a sector with lots of sun and quite sheltered from the wind. In addition, this sector is better to visit on very cold days, since its climbing routes tend to be very vertical, technical and with very small holds, being better to climb here the days of more friction. Here you will find routes from 5th to 8b, of excellent quality, although the sector will be enjoyed more if your level goes from 6b to 7c.
Can Toni Gros, sector of medium-grade routes between 6b and 7b, of very good quality and perhaps a little less crowded than La Reina Mora. In the sun, sheltered from the wind and fast approach. It is an excellent sector and worth a visit.
Grau of the Massets. Here we have three options: Grau de Massets Baix, Cami and Esquerra. The three are sheltered from the wind and the walls remain in the sun until around 3pm, but keep in mind that the base of the routes is usually between trees, so if it is very cold, the belayer will freeze. Here there is variety of grades from the 4th to the 8a/b.
Corral Nou, a not very frequented sector but with excellent climbing. It is in the sun and although its approach is a little longer, it is worth a visit. Grades range from 5th to 8th and it is in the sun all day. A excellent option for the busier days in Siurana.
This is a selection of our favorite places to climb in winter in Siurana, the coldest and windiest days. If the wind is not so strong you have classic sectors such as Espero Primavera, El Pati, Siuranella Central or Herbolari, but you must have in mind that these sites are usually quite crowded and therefore you must deal with a large number of people in the sectors.
You can always contact us and we can take you climbing to the best spots around Siurana. We hope all this information helps you make a good choice and feel free to send us a message with suggestions or questions. See you on the rocks.
Tim visited from NYC and we went climbing in the best climbing areas in Catalunya.face

(Translated by Google) I did the Initiation Course with Santiago, and it was an unforgettable experience! Dynamic, with a lot of practice. The difficult makes it easy! Then, the Tutored Rock Climbs have been really useful, full of emotion, SAFETY (one of the most emphasized topics). SOUTHCLIMB's work IS excellent, you feel personalized, you have fun while you learn, you get answers to doubts and/or questions very quickly. The routes where you will go climbing have wonderful landscapes !! Full of charm! I super-recommend it!!!

El trabajo de SOUTHCLIMB ES excelente , lo sientes personalizado, te diviertes al mismo tiempo que aprendes, las respuestas a las dudas y/o preguntas las obtienes muy rápido. Las vías donde irás a escalar tienen paisajes maravillosos !! Llenos de encanto! Lo súper-recomiendo!!!
I can’t say enough good things about my experience with SouthClimb. Let’s begin with how gorgeous Siurana was! Our guide Santi found an area and climbing routes that were fun and perfectly suited for the grades that myself and the other girl in our group climb. There were specific skills I wanted to work on (cleaning the anchor) and Santi climbed up the route next to one I climbed so that we could work through the process together in a way that was simple, clear, and made me feel safe. I HIGHLY recommend a tour with SouthClimb whether you’re very experienced and want a challenge or it’s your first day on the rock. Don’t hesitate to let your guide know if you have specific goals in mind, because they’re very kind and enthusiastic about helping you learn and grow in the sport. It was a gorgeous day and I am eager to spend more time with SouthClimb! A massive thanks to Santi!
